Testing the effect of quasar-mode feedback on the intracluster medium
收藏资源简介:
We propose to obtain XMMNewton EPIC observations of the massive galaxy clusterACTCL J0320.4+0032 at z0.384. We have recently identified that the Brightest Cluster Galaxy hosts a Type II quasar one of only a handful of such systems to be discovered. This presents a rare opportunity to study the effect of quasarmode feedback on the intracluster medium (ICM). We will address this by using the XMM observations to measure the temperature, entropy, and metallicityprofiles of the cluster, and compare these to wellstudied representative cluster samples and the results of numerical simulations. These observations will complement our 50 ksec Cycle 17 Chandra observation, the goal of which is to search for cavities in the Xray emission. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
